I'm so sorry for your loss. I have meeting at 11am on Tuesday or I would attend the services. Your family was here on Fairway when I first moved here. Now Rit Turner and I are the only ones here from then, 1956. Marion was a lovely neighbor.

To the Hopf family I send my sincere sympathy and deepest condolences for the loss of your mother, grandmother and great-grandmother. Virginia and William, you probably do not remember me from school, but I fondly remember you. My prayers and thoughts are with you during this time of loss.
